Military Justice: An Oxymoron

Dr. Phil Leveque Salem-News.com

Phillip Leveque has spent his life as a Combat Infantryman, Physician, Toxicologist and Pharmacologist.

(MOLALLA, Ore.) - One of our respondents made a great issue that the Army was not a democracy, (its a form of slavery!) but that the Uniform Code of Military Justice or UCMJ, "protected everyone."

Holy smokes, were you in a light mess kit Repair Battalion?

Coming to light now are many reports of rapes of female personnel here in the U.S. and in Iraq, and little or nothing being done about it, except that a Marine rapist killed and burned his victim.

This old crap that the female must have encouraged it is just crap.

See, if the rapists were shot or thrown in the slammer for about twenty years, that just might alleviate the situation. In the meantime, court martials for abuse of rank by harrassment, sexual or otherwise might help to convince me that the UCMJ is more than a facade.

I meant it about the mess kit repair battalion.
